Abstract
This report examines the current controversy over differential treatment approaches for emotionally disturbed children, with family therapy as the focus, and considers how the controversy over family therapy has in turn led to advances in the treatment of two conditions: adolescent separation problems and psychosomatic illness. Implications for future child psychiatric training and practice, as family assessment becomes an essential part of the diagnostic process and family therapy a more important and better developed treatment approach, are considered.
